Here it is!!! All the amazing Christmas cards we received from our new friends! The kids had a great time doing this exchange and we had so much fun opening each one of them, reading about the other classes, and pinning them to our map on the wall! We are missing about 6 of them, and I'm sure they will be there when we get back, and trust me, my kids will be just as thrilled! Not sure how long I will keep it up on the wall though, as my OCD isn't handling it very well, lol. If anyone else wants me to post how you displayed them, send me a pic and I will post it here too.
And..... I'm officially off work for two weeks!! Can I get a
HALLELUJAH!!!
Update: There were three more cards waiting for us when we arrived back at school this week!! Two had been opened? One so bad that it was just a mangled envelope in a post office baggie with a note saying "sorry". It's ok, we know you sent it! I would love to do this again next year as my kids LOVED it! Thanks again to everyone who participated!

Thank you so much for setting up the Christmas Card Exchange...my class had so much fun getting cards from all over and we also enjoyed learning about everyone's program and cities. Thanks again!

ReplyDeleteFor sure Alicia! We didn't have one in every state and a couple states had 2, but that's OK! I will start another one next year right mid November. Check back!.
